I found this online in case anyone ever needs it:
Unlocking the phone for use with a SIM card from another phone company can be done by entering *#9998*3323# which will reset the phone, you exit and push 7 which completes the reset, you can then put your new SIM card in the phone, when prompted about the SIM lock simply enter 00000000 and then *0141# which will unlock the phone for you. Alternatively you can try *#2767*2878# without a SIM card which is known to work on some models.

I got the 'STRING: NOT FOUND' error on method one, so I moved to ADB Guide method and successfully unlocked it.

If you unlock the phone, it will still work with the original SIM card.
One possible reason that the other T-Mobile SIM didn't work is that it might not have been a newer 4G-capable SIM card, or the contacts became dirty ( they can easily be cleaned with a pencil eraser).

Htc Sensation No Sim Card Error/Can't enter network unlock code

Ok so i tried the unlocking method 1 for my sensation and found my 8 digit unlocking code, however when i put in any other sim card rather than the one the phone is locked to is says no sim card in phone so i have no way of inputing the unlock code.
Any ideas?
Thanks in Advance
i think it states in the unlock thread that it wont work with ALL sensations
Thanks for the reply, yes for some people method 1 just shows a date, but mine gave me the 8 digit unlock code.
The problem is the phone is locked to Meteor but when i insert any other sim then a Meteor one it says no sim card in phone, it should ask to enter the 8 digit network unlock code which it doesn't because its not recognising the sim card for some reason.
mine too, not detect the sim card..
Did you solved the problem?
regards

Did you put the code in with the meteor sim inserted?
you could always just flash another ROM and that should fix the issue, I know it's a bit drastic but if you really want to use another carrier...

Sorry for only replying now, still not resolved, how would i put the code in with the meteor sim in it?
Ive already tried changing the rom and tried the method 2 unlock but it still won't recognise any other sims apart from meteor ones.

No sim in Inspire

Is it possible to use the Inspire without a sim card on WIFI for internet and email?
Every Android phone I have ever used has allowed me to "use" the phone without a sim card, but the inspire has a pop up message saying:
phone options
unable to detect your sim card.
Please make sure that your sim
card is properly inserted and
restart your phone.
The only two options that I have are "shut phone down" or "restart", and I have been unable to find a way past this message to use this as a wifi only device.

You should have not an issue to do that....make sure that there's no SIM in the phone or you won't be able to use it. With no sim on it u can access the phone and use WI FI and mail with no problems at all...I am currently using it no sim at all...
theres no sim in it, yet i keep getting that same message....tried rebooting the phone and everything.

I actually just picked this phone up via a trade so my wife could try Android out, so all I can say is that I haven't entered the wrong unlock code as I haven't attempted to unlock it.
Thanks for the help, though, I appreciate it.
yeah easy way is just to run the ace hack kit...it will unlock and root it...THEN you shouldn't have no problem of running it without sim card...very simple and easy to do too

You have already said that when you put another SIM card in it works, so it is not SIM Locked
Where did you get the info about This phone is permanently locked and can not be unlocked

I do this:
1. Turn on the phone whithout sim card
2. Type *#*#7378423#*#*
3. Select Service info
4. Select SimLock
5. Check where is X
6. If X is on NETWORK and value is different than 0, you can unlock your phone.
7. If it is 0 unlock by code is NOT possible.

OK, I am unsure on this. I thought you were mistaking the bootloader unlock for SIM unlock.
However, if you can put another SIM in it from a different provider and it works, then it is unlocked
Ok thank you I for your opinion !
Your phone Is unlocked. Mine is the same

If you enter the service info and indicates "0" on the sim lock statu, it means it is OPENLINE in laymans term. Means you can use other sim provider. If it is "1" means your device is sim locked. (0= off, 1= on)

Edit: *never mind, delete*
I want to unlock my phone but I'm not sure that it will work. because when we look at the service menu of phone.

[]Network subset 0

in the sim lock menu. could you help me about this.

Try a different (non-AT&T/Rogers) SIM for starters...
I recall a "No SIM" method kicking around, I just have to remember it.
UPDATE: From offsite...
If your phone does not ask for the unlock code:
1. Turn on the phone with original Sim card or without Sim card
2. Enter #7465625*638*NCK/Network#
The phone is now unlocked.
If your phone does not ask for the unlock code:
1. Turn on the phone with a foreign (Unaccepted) Sim card
2. Then enter the following sequence:
#0199*Unfreeze/Defreeze#
#0111*NCK/Network#
#0121*SCK/Subprovider#
#0133*SPCK/Provider#
The phone is now unlocked.

According to the phone specs versus the Vodaphone frequencies, you may be stuck with 2G as well.
i cant dial any of those because i always get the same msg " no network available"

Yikes. Try without a SIM, and see if the message (including the lockscreen msg) is any different.
You may have a bent or broken pin in the SIM tray...
